Boasting handmade bagels, fresh baked super-sized muffins, bialys and overstuffed sandwiches (and lunchtime pizza on weekdays), Bethesda Bagels has finally opened in Dupont Circle. Half a block north of R Street NW on the west side of Connecticut Avenue, they took over the space formerly occupied by Johnny Rockets and opened last Friday.

Their menu lists 21 regularly offered flavors of bagels and five more specialty bagels you’ll have to watch closely or show up early for. They also offer an assortment of bagel pizzas and daily sandwich specials, with deli meats and cheeses for the lunch crowd.

Welcome to Dupont, Bethesda Bagels! Those of us who stumble to the Sunday market will surely be stopping by for a visit!
